Use Black Decal Material it Works great and that way if it looks like edit then you can just peal it off.

IMO anyways.

Someone has done it - I believe it was a white truck - but I can't seem to find the thread... the black vinyl decal sounds like a good idea - put it on like window tint...

I had it on my 03 Dodge and I used the fake carbon fiber vinyl and it looked killer.

yep

Bert appears to be wearing some Dirt, whats up with that?

i think i will do mine with Krylon, cheap paint comes off easy enough (with the right chemical, cough...cough....)

i did a car back in the 80's, and just had to re-krylon it every other year or so to keep the shine in it.

Dealer painted mine for free when the factory decal was shredded by the local HP car wash.

Great service from Cowboy Dodge in Cheyenne.

Add the hood and it might not look so bad!!

Better yet add the hood and the top of the box sides down as far as the hood is!!!!!

That third one has the Landau look going on.

I half expect to see Ricardo Montalban step out of the back after going on about the "rich Corinthian leather."

I am actually probably getting the top third of the truck painted black with a candy orange pinstripe where the black and white meet.
